Content - It's often thought that Greensleeves - a 16th century love song - was written by King Henry VIII for his second (of six) wives, Anne Boleyn.  However, it appears that this may be a myth!  This version is arranged for voices accompanied by Recorder 1 & 2, Treble Recorder, Guitar and Tuned and Untuned Percussion.

Lyrics 

Alas, my love, you do me wrong

To cast me off discourteously;

And I have lov-ed you so long,

Delighting in your company.

Greensleeves was all my joy,

Greensleeves was my delight.

Greensleeves was my heart of gold,

And who but my lady Greensleeves.
